Steven takes me to see LaLa Land the day after Ellie leaves New Haven. He's seen it already, but that's ok: he'll love it all the more for seeing it again. He promises. In the uber to the theater, he gushes over Ryan Gosling. I stare in numb horror at the conspicuous neon glare of my hospital socks through the straps of my Birkenstocks.
Is this the end of the relationship?
How to know when love is over? Relationships always begin with excitement and butterflies in the stomach, but determining when to end a relationship is not so simple, and sometimes it plunges us into a stalemate that is difficult to resolve.

Why are the most impactful moments in love also the most painful ones? In fact, a lover’s betrayal might be the very best prompt to self-actualization.

During my high school and college tenure, the word "situationship" hadn't yet been popularized, but the concept certainly was. If you're unfamiliar with the term, it might be because the idea is ambiguous in and of itself.
Ashley TrippPublished 2 months ago in HumansToday I was Supposed To Be A Mom
February 21st Today, I was supposed to be a mom. I was going to ascend into queendom, transforming into a goddess, bearer of life, deliverer of sweet essence. But today isn't… that.

Doubt and fear are very strong feelings which plague our lives in numerous ways, having control over them would be a great superpower to have. I’ll preface all this by saying doubt and fear are natural reflexes which protect us from danger or making mistakes, without fear you’ll walk right up into the jungle and challenge a lion to a fist fight, and we all know how that will go.

Hridya SharmaPublished 2 months ago in HumansHow Do You Know When You've Found the One?
1. When you are comfortable in any setting with them. I encourage all couples who are interested in furthering their relationships toward marriage to explore lots of different types of settings before tying the knot. Spend time with your significant other's extended family. Try going to the mall together. Professional sporting events. Birthday parties. Go overseas together if you can. The more places that you are able to spend time together the better because you will be able to see how your significant other responds to his or her surroundings. Ask yourself, do I admire the way my significant other takes in the world?
